I’m a StarCraft player, which means that I do not need the numkeys and absolutely have a mental disorder. Why do I do this to myself? Mama Mia 😞

NGL, sometimes I want a TKL, but with a hexadecimal numpad (I'm a programmer).

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

TKL is good for karpal tunnel (or it was for me), much place for the mouse suddenly.

FWIW you can get bluetooth numpads and stick it anywhere you'd like!

I hate my 60%, you can only use the question mark or arrows at one time. And unfortunately, I use both of them frequently

my favorite keyboard that i can remember was some bullshit off-brand apple thing from the early 2000s when USB accessories were super novel. rescued from a dumpster, not related to other Apple trash that belonged in the dumpster. full size numpad, super satisfying clicky clacky. several different shades of puke in color. took that to work and told IT to take their stuff and go

100% or bust!

Get a larger desk. No way I'm typing numbers not on a keypad

[-] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 months ago

I'm pulling my separate numpad out when I know I'll be entering a lot of numbers. Or reach over to it when I enter a PIN from muscle memory. Otherwise I toss it to the side.

I use this occasionally when i need to do a lot of number typing whilst using my mouse so i can relax my arm to the side rather than reaching across the KB and straining the muscle behind my shoulderblade.

The fuck do you people need the num pad on your daily driver? Are you all deviant accountants or retro computer enthusiasts typing in code from magazines?

Because when i was a consultant i had to bring my laptop to clients. A big keyboard didn't dit in my bag, but a TKL was still preferable to the laptop keyboard.

"He said the truth", but they hated him.

[-] aiden@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago

I don't need the numpad. But no function keys? That's insane.

I've been trying a 75% tenkeyless but I do miss the number block haha. I really want to switch to a split ergo though, but it's a bit of investment to learn and configure.

[-] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

When I was buying mine full-sized was a huge leap in price from TKL, so I said fuck it, I'll get used to the damn number row!

And so I did. And now even when I have a numpad available I'm still typing with the number row.

...y-yay capitalism????

36 keys... I will outpace you, including special characters and numbers

[-] Philharmonic3@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Over here loving my 60%. It's all about modifier keys y'all. That 60% actually has all the keys your 130% and more all within reach.

I use a Lily58 for work, and it's excellent. Obviously mine looks much different than the ones on this product page, but it's this layout.

I went from a 100% membrane to a 60% mechanical, then a ~63% (think the 60% one but ONLY with extra arrow keys) then to a tenkeyless minus some of the useless keys, now to a full tenkeyless one

Here's what I have. Honestly it's perfect.

Calling a 96% a mental disorder says more about you, OP than a friggin keyboard.

[-] Priditri@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I went from 65% to 60% and am very happy!

[-] Dvixen@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago
[-] Digestive_Biscuit@feddit.uk 5 points 2 months ago

75% here too. I want a full size back. Tired of having a separate numpad. Waiting till this one gets old then switching back.
